HuMetric API reference

Learn how to use the HuMetric API for entity metrics, signal processing, and semantic queries.

Concepts

Four words to know first

Entity

The thing you measure — an agent, a user, a task. Everything in HuMetric hangs off an entity and the ID you give it.

Signal

A piece of evidence about an entity: free text or structured data. You send signals; HuMetric reads them.

Metric

A calibrated 0–1 score HuMetric extracts from signals. Each carries a confidence and fades as it ages.

Pack

Your scoring rules. A pack declares which metrics to extract for an entity type — define it once, reuse it forever.

Confidence

How sure HuMetric is about a value. It is recorded once and never rewritten — but its weight decays as the evidence ages, so a stale score quietly stops counting.

Consent

A pack can mark a metric sensitive. Those values stay hidden until the entity has granted the matching consent scope, and disappear again the moment it is revoked.

Quickstart

Zero to metrics in four calls

The order matters. A signal is rejected until its entity exists, and metrics stay empty until a pack tells HuMetric what to look for.

Define a pack POST /v1/packs

Tell HuMetric what to measure for an entity type — e.g. agents get code_quality and helpfulness.

Create an entity POST /v1/entities

Send signals POST /v1/signals

Feed evidence as it happens. HuMetric extracts metrics and updates them in the background.

Read or rank GET /v1/entities/{id}/metrics

Pull one entity’s live metrics, or query in plain language across all of them.

Base URL

Every endpoint below is relative to this host. Send requests over HTTPS only.

https://api.gethumetric.com

Authentication

Keys and scopes

All API requests require a valid HuMetric API key. Include the key as a Bearer token in the Authorization header. Create your API key from the dashboard after registration.

Authorization: Bearer hm_live_K4f8xY2pL9mN3vR7wQ1sT6uZ0bC5dA...

Keys come in two prefixes. hm_live_ keys act on your real data; hm_test_ keys are for wiring things up. The full key is shown once, at creation — HuMetric only stores a hash, so a lost key must be replaced, not recovered.

Keys can carry an expiry (up to 730 days). Rotating is create-then-delete: mint the new key, move your traffic, then revoke the old one. A key cannot delete itself.

Scopes

A key carries a list of scopes and can do nothing outside them. Calling an endpoint without its scope returns 403 insufficient_scopes — the request never reaches your data.

Scope	Grants
`entities:read`	Read entities, their metrics, explanations, and history.
`entities:write`	Create and update entities, and override a metric under review.
`signals:read`	Read signal status, traces, and an entity’s signal list.
`signals:write`	Submit new signals for processing.
`query`	Run semantic queries and rankings across entities.
`packs:read`	List and read metric packs.
`packs:admin`	Create, update, and generate packs. Implies read.
`tenant:admin`	Read account usage and manage tenant-level settings. Required by /v1/usage and /v1/usage/calls.

A key can only ever create keys weaker than or equal to itself, so a narrow integration key cannot quietly widen its own reach.

MCP

Connect Claude directly — no code required

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) lets Claude Desktop or Claude Code talk to your HuMetric account directly. Once it’s connected, just ask in plain language — Claude queries entities, reads scores, and can log new signals for you, right from the chat.

Download the server

One self-contained Python file — nothing else to build.

Install three packages

mcp, httpx, and python-dotenv. That’s the whole dependency list.

Add it to your client

Point Claude Desktop or Claude Code at the file, with your API key. Pick a tab below.

curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bestekarx/humetric/main/mcp_server.py
pip install mcp httpx python-dotenv

Add to claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "humetric": {
      "command": "python3",
      "args": ["/path/to/mcp_server.py", "--transport", "stdio"],
      "env": {
        "HUMETRIC_MCP_API_KEY": "hm_live_your_key_here",
        "HUMETRIC_BASE_URL": "https://api.gethumetric.com"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run once in your terminal:

claude mcp add humetric \
+  -e HUMETRIC_MCP_API_KEY=hm_live_your_key_here \
+  -e HUMETRIC_BASE_URL=https://api.gethumetric.com \
+  -- python3 /path/to/mcp_server.py --transport stdio

What Claude can do once connected

Query & rank

Rank entities by any metric — "which suppliers have rising churn risk?"

Read an entity

Pull one entity’s full metric history and confidence scores.

Log a signal

Turn something Claude noticed in the conversation into a new signal.

Try it

Once connected, just ask — Claude picks the right tool on its own.

“Which of my suppliers have rising churn risk this quarter?”

Conventions

Rules that hold everywhere

These apply to every endpoint below, so they are stated once here rather than repeated on each.

Writes are asynchronous

POST /v1/signals answers 202 with a signal_id and a trace_url before any work happens. The status it returns is "received" — never "queued". Extraction runs in the background and moves the signal to "completed" or "failed"; a retried signal goes back to "received". Metrics are never up to date in the same call that produced them, so poll the signal or re-read the entity.

Pagination

Most list endpoints take limit and offset and answer with items, total, limit, offset — but not all of them, so check the shape per endpoint below. Metric history returns points instead of items. GET /v1/packs, GET /v1/consent/{entity_id} and GET /v1/metrics/pending-review return a bare JSON array with no envelope and no paging at all. GET /v1/api-keys returns {api_keys: […]} with no total. Where limit is accepted, asking above the ceiling is clamped silently rather than rejected.

Timestamps

Every timestamp in and out is ISO 8601. Send UTC; a value without a timezone is read as UTC. occurred_at may not be in the future.

Re-sending a signal

Idempotency is the Idempotency-Key request header, not a body field. Send the same header value again for the same entity within 24 hours and you get 200 with the original signal and its metrics instead of a second queue entry — that is what makes a webhook retry safe. Two things to be careful about. external_id on its own does not give you this: the replay check only runs when the header is present, and because both write to the same unique column, re-sending an external_id you have already used for that entity fails with 500 rather than returning the original. The same is true of a header value replayed after the 24-hour window has passed. So treat an idempotency value as single-use per entity per day: send it as the header, keep it unique, and do not reuse yesterday’s.

confidence vs effective_confidence

confidence is what was recorded at the time — the honest line to plot. effective_confidence applies exponential temporal decay at read time, with a half-life of 365 days: what that evidence is still worth today. They are not interchangeable; rank on the effective one, chart the raw one. Note that POST /v1/signals results and GET /v1/metrics/pending-review carry the raw confidence only.

Field naming

Responses are always snake_case. Requests are mostly snake_case too: camelCase is accepted only on the specific fields listed below, because each alias was added by hand rather than by a naming rule. Anything not on that list is rejected with 422 — entityId, entityType and externalId on POST /v1/signals are the ones people hit first. Send snake_case everywhere and none of this matters.

Where camelCase is accepted

Endpoint	camelCase fields accepted
`POST /v1/entities`	`Id, entityType, freeText`
`POST /v1/signals`	`occurredAt`
`POST /v1/query`	`rankBy, freeTextQuery, includeReasoning`
`POST /v1/packs`	`packKey`
`POST /v1/packs/wizard`	`entityTypeHint`
`POST /v1/consent`	`expiresAt`

Endpoint	Parameter	Default	Ceiling

Endpoints

Full API reference

30 endpoints, ordered the way you meet them. Each one lists the API-key scope it requires.

No endpoint matches that.

Packs

Define what to measure.

Pack templates

Start from a pack that already runs

A pack is just YAML. These are the packs HuMetric ships with, not illustrations — pick the closest one, send it as the yaml_text field of POST /v1/packs, then edit the metrics for your own domain. Remember the ceiling of 7 metrics.

Metric keys in the shipped packs are Turkish because the extraction prompt refers to them by name. They are identifiers, not labels: rename them if you like, but rename them in the prompt too, or the extractor will produce nothing.

Not your sector? Generate a pack with AI Describe what you want to measure in plain language — the Pack Wizard suggests the metrics for you.

POST /v1/packs

Create Pack

Create a metric pack definition in YAML format. A pack defines which metrics to extract for an entity_type.

packs:admin201

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`yaml_text`	string	•	Pack definition (YAML)
`pack_key`	string	–	Pack key (auto: entity_type)

Request

curl -X POST https://api.gethumetric.com/v1/packs \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer hm_live_xxxx..." \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"yaml_text": "entity_type: agent\nlabel: Agent Quality\nmetrics:\n  - key: code_quality\n    label: Code Quality\n    type: float\n    prompt: Rate code quality from 0 to 1"}'

Response

{
  "pack_key": "agent",
  "version": 1,
  "label": "AI Agent Quality",
  "entity_type": "agent",
  "is_active": true,
  "created_at": "2026-08-24T19:39:17.997229Z",
  "updated_at": null
}

The stored pack: pack_key, version, label, entity_type, is_active, and timestamps.

Worth knowing One active pack per entity_type. Creating a second pack for a type that already has one returns 409 entity_type_already_active — update the existing pack instead. A duplicate pack_key returns 409 pack_already_exists.

GET /v1/packs

List Packs

List all your metric pack definitions.

packs:read

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`is_active`	boolean (query)	–	Fetch only active packs

Request

curl -X GET "https://api.gethumetric.com/v1/packs?is_active=true" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer hm_live_xxxx..."

Response

    "updated_at": null
  }
]

An array of pack summaries. Pass is_active=true to skip retired versions.

GET /v1/packs/{pack_key}

Get a pack

Fetch one pack by key, including its full parsed definition — the metrics, required fields, bands, and KVKK flags it declares.

packs:read

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`pack_key`	string (path)	•	The pack’s key, as returned when it was created.

Request

curl -X GET "https://api.gethumetric.com/v1/packs/agent-quality" \

  }
}

The pack summary plus its complete definition object.

PUT /v1/packs/{pack_key}

Update a pack

Replace a pack’s definition with new YAML. Use this to add a metric, retune a prompt, or adjust bands without breaking the entities already scored by it.

packs:admin

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`pack_key`	string (path)	•	The pack’s key, as returned when it was created.
`yaml_text`	string	•	Pack definition (YAML)

Request

curl -X PUT "https://api.gethumetric.com/v1/packs/agent-quality" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer hm_live_xxxx..." \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"yaml_text": "entity_type: agent\nlabel: Agent Quality\nversion: 2\nmetrics:\n  - key: code_quality\n    label: Code Quality\n    type: float\n    prompt: Rate code quality from -1 to 1"}'

Response

  "updated_at": "2026-08-24T19:39:18.057553Z"
}

The updated pack, with its version incremented.

Worth knowing Editing a pack does not rescore existing metrics — it changes what future signals extract. Old values stay until new evidence arrives. Changing entity_type on a live pack is rejected.

POST /v1/packs/wizard

Generate a pack with AI

Describe what you want to measure in plain language and get back a valid pack YAML. The wizard picks the metrics, writes their extraction prompts, and validates the result before returning it.

packs:admin

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`text`	string	•	What you want to measure, in plain language. 10–100,000 characters — more context yields better metrics.
`entity_type_hint`	string	–	The entity type to write into the generated pack. Inferred from your description when omitted.

Request

curl -X POST https://api.gethumetric.com/v1/packs/wizard \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer hm_live_xxxx..." \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"text": "I run a marketplace and want to score sellers on shipping speed, product accuracy, and how they handle complaints", "entity_type_hint": "seller"}'

Response

{
  "yaml_text": "entity_type: dealer\nlabel: Dealer\nversion: 1\nmetrics:\n  - key: churn_risk\n    ...",
  "entity_type": "dealer",
  "model": "<configured wizard model>"
}

pack_yaml ready to send to POST /v1/packs, plus validation_errors and a confidence score for the suggestion.

Worth knowing The wizard only drafts — nothing is saved. Review the YAML, then create it yourself. A non-empty validation_errors means the draft needs an edit before it will be accepted.

Entities

POST /v1/entities

Create / Update Entity

Create a new entity or update an existing one. Entities are the units that metrics are attached to (user, agent, task, etc.).

entities:write201

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`id`	string	•	Client-determined unique ID
`entity_type`	string	•	Entity type (e.g. agent, user, task)
`fields`	object	–	Custom fields (key-value)
`free_text`	string	–	Free text about the entity

Request

curl -X POST https://api.gethumetric.com/v1/entities \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer hm_live_xxxx..." \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"id": "agent-42", "entity_type": "agent", "fields": {"name": "Claude", "version": "4.5"}, "free_text": "Code help assistant"}'

Response

{
  "id": "agent-42",

  "metrics": [],
  "status": "active",
  "created_at": "2026-08-24T19:39:18.082991Z",
  "updated_at": null
}

The created entity with an empty metrics array — scores appear only after signals are processed.

Worth knowing The id is yours to choose and must be unique within your tenant; reuse the ID your own system already has. Sending an existing ID updates that entity rather than creating a second one. There must be an active pack for the entity_type first.

    }
  ],
  "metric_count": 1,
  "history": {}
}

Every current metric with value, confidence, effective_confidence, source_count, and last_updated.

Worth knowing Sensitive metrics are omitted unless the entity has granted the consent scope the pack requires — the response is simply shorter, it does not error.

GET /v1/entities/{entity_id}/signals

List an entity’s signals

Everything you have sent about one entity, with a text preview and the metrics each signal produced — the audit trail behind its scores.

signals:read

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description

Signals

Feed in evidence and follow how it’s processed.

POST /v1/signals

Send Signal

Submit raw text or structured data for an entity. HuMetric processes this signal, extracts metrics, and updates them.

signals:write202

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`entity_id`	string	•	Target entity ID
`entity_type`	string	•	Entity type (e.g. agent, user, task)
`text`	string	–	Free text (e.g. user feedback)
`structured`	object	–	Structured data (key-value)
`external_id`	string	–	Your own id for this signal, stored for reconciliation. It does not make the request idempotent — use the Idempotency-Key header for that. It must still be unique per entity: re-sending one you have already used fails with 500.
`occurred_at`	datetime	–	When the source text was actually produced. Omit for live signals; set it when backfilling so history keeps the right order. Cannot be in the future.
`Idempotency-Key`	string (header)	–	Request header, not a body field. Re-sending the same value for the same entity within 24 hours returns the original signal with 200 instead of queueing a second one.

Request

curl -X POST https://api.gethumetric.com/v1/signals \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer hm_live_xxxx..." \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \

}

signal_id, a status of "received", and a trace_url. Poll GET /v1/signals/{signal_id} or read the entity’s metrics once processing finishes.

Worth knowing Returns 202, not 200 — the metrics do not exist yet. Send text, structured, or both. The entity must already exist and must not be archived. Set occurred_at when backfilling so history stays in the right order.

Worth knowing free_text_query searches semantically; rank_by sorts by one metric key. Combine them to search in language and order by a number. filters narrows on entity fields before ranking, which is cheaper than filtering afterwards.

Consent

Grant, inspect, and revoke access to sensitive metrics.

POST /v1/consent

Grant consent

Record that an entity has consented to a named scope. Metrics the pack marked sensitive under that scope become readable from this point on.

entities:write201

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`entity_id`	string	•	Target entity ID
`scope`	string	•	The consent scope being granted. Must match the pack’s requires_consent_scope exactly.
`status`	string	–	granted, revoked, or expired. Defaults to granted.
`expires_at`	datetime	–	When the consent lapses on its own. Omit for open-ended consent.

Request

curl -X POST https://api.gethumetric.com/v1/consent \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer hm_live_xxxx..." \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"entity_id": "account-17", "scope": "billing:read", "status": "granted", "expires_at": "2027-01-01T00:00:00Z"}'

Response

{
  "id": 21,
  "entity_id": "agent-42",
  "scope": "health_data",
  "status": "granted",
  "granted_at": "2026-08-24T19:39:30.783606Z",
  "revoked_at": null,
  "expires_at": null
}

The stored consent record with granted_at and, if set, expires_at.

Worth knowing The scope string must match the pack’s requires_consent_scope exactly. Consent is per entity, not per tenant — granting it for one entity reveals nothing about another.

GET /v1/consent/{entity_id}

List consents

Every consent record held for one entity — what was granted, when, and whether it is still live.

entities:read

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`entity_id`	string (path)	•	Target entity ID

Request

curl -X GET "https://api.gethumetric.com/v1/consent/account-17" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer hm_live_xxxx..."

Response

[
  {
    "id": 21,
    "entity_id": "agent-42",
    "scope": "health_data",
    "status": "granted",
    "granted_at": "2026-08-24T19:39:30.783606Z",
    "revoked_at": null,
    "expires_at": null
  }
]

An array of consent records with scope, status (granted, revoked, or expired), and timestamps.

DELETE /v1/consent/{entity_id}

Revoke consent

Withdraw consent for one scope, or for every scope at once by omitting the scope parameter.

entities:write

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`entity_id`	string (path)	•	Target entity ID
`scope`	string (query)	–	Which scope to revoke. Omit to revoke every scope for this entity.

Request

curl -X DELETE "https://api.gethumetric.com/v1/consent/account-17?scope=billing:read" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer hm_live_xxxx..."

Response

{
  "revoked": true,
  "entity_id": "agent-42",
  "scope": "health_data"
}

A confirmation naming the entity and the scope that was revoked (or "all").

Worth knowing Revocation takes effect immediately on every read path — the metric vanishes from GET /metrics, from query results, and from explanations on the next call.

API keys

Mint scoped keys and retire them.

POST /v1/api-keys

Create an API key

Mint a scoped key for one integration. Give each consumer its own key with the narrowest scope set that works.

201

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`prefix`	string	–	hm_live for real data or hm_test for integration work. Defaults to hm_test.
`scopes`	string[]	–	Scopes the key may use. Cannot exceed the scopes of the key making the request.
`label`	string	–	A human name for the key, so you can tell them apart later.
`expires_in_days`	number	–	Lifetime in days, 1–730. Simpler than computing an absolute date.
`expires_at`	datetime	–	An absolute expiry timestamp. Use this or expires_in_days, not both.

Request

curl -X POST https://api.gethumetric.com/v1/api-keys \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer hm_live_xxxx..." \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"prefix": "hm_live", "label": "CRM sync", "scopes": ["signals:write", "entities:read"], "expires_in_days": 365}'

Response

{
  "id": 11,
  "prefix": "hm_live",
  "full_key": "hm_live_<shown once, never again>",
  "scopes": ["signals:write", "entities:read", "query"],
  "label": "ingest-worker",
  "is_revoked": false,
  "created_at": "2026-08-24T19:44:10.201883Z",
  "expires_at": "2027-08-24T19:44:10.201883Z"
}

The key record plus full_key — the only time the complete secret is ever returned.

Worth knowing Store full_key immediately; HuMetric keeps only a hash and cannot show it again. You cannot request scopes your own key does not hold. expires_in_days accepts 1–730.

GET /v1/api-keys

List API keys

Every key on your account with its scopes, label, expiry, and when it was last used — the fastest way to spot a key nothing is calling anymore.

Request

curl -X GET https://api.gethumetric.com/v1/api-keys \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer hm_live_xxxx..."

Response

{
  "api_keys": [
    {
      "id": 10,
      "prefix": "hm_live",
      "scopes": ["signals:write", "entities:read", "query"],
      "label": "ingest-worker",
      "is_revoked": false,
      "last_used_at": "2026-08-24T19:39:30.852343Z",
      "created_at": "2026-08-24T19:38:52.748418Z",
      "expires_at": null
    }
  ]
}

An array of key records. Secrets are never included, only the prefix.

DELETE /v1/api-keys/{key_id}

Revoke an API key

Retire a key. It stops authenticating immediately and every later request with it returns 401.

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`key_id`	number (path)	•	The numeric id of the key, as returned by GET /v1/api-keys.

Request

curl -X DELETE "https://api.gethumetric.com/v1/api-keys/42" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer hm_live_xxxx..."

Response

{
  "status": "deleted",
  "id": 11
}

A confirmation with the deleted key id.

Worth knowing A key cannot revoke itself — that would lock you out mid-rotation. Create the replacement first, switch your traffic to it, then use the new key to revoke the old one.

Review

Catch low-confidence scores and correct them by hand.

GET /v1/metrics/pending-review

List metrics needing review

Scores the pipeline flagged as uncertain — thin evidence, conflicting signals, or confidence below the pack’s bar. This is the human-in-the-loop queue.

packs:admin

Request

curl -X GET https://api.gethumetric.com/v1/metrics/pending-review \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer hm_live_xxxx..."

Response

[
  {
    "entity_id": "agent-42",
    "metric_key": "tone",
    "value": 0.31,
    "confidence": 0.28,
    "source_count": 1,
    "review_status": "pending_review",
    "last_updated": "2026-08-24T19:41:02.114820Z",
    "signal_id": "e5f19c59-ac91-472a-88bf-54b75df0ddf3"
  }
]

Flagged metrics with their entity, current value, confidence, and why they were flagged.

Worth knowing A flagged metric is still returned by the normal read endpoints — flagging asks for attention, it does not hide the value.

PUT /v1/metrics/{entity_id}/{metric_key}/review

Override a metric

Replace a score by hand when a reviewer knows better than the extractor, and record why.

packs:admin

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`entity_id`	string (path)	•	Target entity ID
`metric_key`	string (path)	•	The metric’s key, exactly as declared in the pack.
`value`	number	•	The corrected value, from −1 to 1.
`confidence`	number	•	How sure the reviewer is, from 0 to 1.
`comment`	string	–	Why the score was changed. Stored with the override in the audit trail.

Request

curl -X PUT "https://api.gethumetric.com/v1/metrics/agent-42/code_quality/review" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer hm_live_xxxx..." \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"value": 0.8, "confidence": 0.95, "comment": "Reviewed the transcript by hand — the extractor missed the refactor"}'

Response

{
  "entity_id": "agent-42",
  "metric_key": "tone",
  "value": 0.6,
  "confidence": 0.95,
  "review_status": "reviewed",
  "reviewer_override": {
    "value": 0.6,
    "confidence": 0.95,
    "comment": "Customer was terse, not unhappy.",
    "api_key_id": 10,
    "at": "2026-08-24T19:52:44.019277Z"
  },
  "last_updated": "2026-08-24T19:52:44.019277Z"
}

The previous and new value and confidence, the comment, and overridden_at.

Worth knowing The override is written to history like any other contribution, so the audit trail stays intact. value takes −1 to 1 and confidence 0 to 1. Later signals can still move the metric — an override is a correction, not a lock.

Account

Usage, audit trail, and service health.

GET /v1/usage

Usage report

Your consumption over a date range, broken down by day — signals processed, LLM tokens spent, and embeddings generated.

tenant:admin

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`start_date`	string (query)	•	First day of the range, YYYY-MM-DD. Inclusive.
`end_date`	string (query)	•	Last day of the range, YYYY-MM-DD. Inclusive.

Request

curl -X GET "https://api.gethumetric.com/v1/usage?start_date=2026-08-01&end_date=2026-08-31" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer hm_live_xxxx..."

Response

{
  "tenant_id": 17,
  "start_date": "2026-08-01",
  "end_date": "2026-08-24",
  "records": [
    { "date": "2026-08-24", "signal_count": 1, "llm_token_count": 0, "embedding_count": 0 }
  ],
  "total": {
    "date": "2026-08-01..2026-08-24",
    "signal_count": 1,
    "llm_token_count": 0,
    "embedding_count": 0
  }
}

A records array, one row per day, plus a total across the range.

GET /v1/usage/calls

Per-call usage

Usage broken down by call rather than by day — which client and which tool spent the tokens.

tenant:admin

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`start_date`	string (query)	•	First day of the range, YYYY-MM-DD. Inclusive.
`end_date`	string (query)	•	Last day of the range, YYYY-MM-DD. Inclusive.
`group_by`	string (query)	–	How to bucket the rows: day, client, or tool.
`client`	string (query)	–	Filter to one client: mcp, rest, or dashboard.
`tool_name`	string (query)	–	Filter to one tool name, e.g. humetric_query_entities.
`limit`	number (query)	–	Rows per page. Default 100.
`offset`	number (query)	–	How many rows to skip. Combine with limit to page.

Request

curl -X GET "https://api.gethumetric.com/v1/usage/calls?start_date=2026-08-01&end_date=2026-08-24" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $HUMETRIC_API_KEY"

Response

{
  "records": [
    {
      "bucket": "2026-08-24",
      "client": "mcp",
      "tool_name": "humetric_query_entities",
      "call_count": 12,
      "llm_token_count": 8420
    }
  ],
  "total": { "bucket": "all", "call_count": 12, "llm_token_count": 8420 }
}

records with a bucket, client, tool_name, call_count and llm_token_count, plus a total.

Worth knowing start_date and end_date are required here; omitting them returns 422. Attribution comes from optional request headers (X-HuMetric-Client, X-HuMetric-Tool), so calls made without them are grouped as unattributed.

GET /v1/audit-logs

Audit log

Who did what, when. Every write, key change, and rejected authentication attempt on your account.

entities:read

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`action`	string (query)	–	Filter to one action, e.g. entity.create or auth.rejected.
`entity_id`	string (query)	–	Filter to the entries that touched one entity.
`limit`	number (query)	–	Rows per page. Default 100.
`offset`	number (query)	–	How many rows to skip. Combine with limit to page.

Request

curl -X GET "https://api.gethumetric.com/v1/audit-logs?action=entity.create&limit=100" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer hm_live_xxxx..."

Response

{
  "items": [
    {
      "id": 55,
      "action": "consent.revoked",
      "entity_id": "agent-42",
      "details": { "scope": "health_data" },
      "api_key_id": 10,
      "created_at": "2026-08-24T19:39:30.839160Z"
    }
  ],
  "total": 2,
  "limit": 5,
  "offset": 0
}

items with total, limit, offset. Each row carries the action, the entity it touched, the API key that made the call, and a details object.

GET /healthz

Health check

Whether the API is up. The one endpoint that needs no API key and is never rate limited.

Request

curl -X GET https://api.gethumetric.com/healthz

Response

{
  "status": "ok",
  "service": "humetric",
  "version": "1.0.0"
}

A status object. 200 means the API is serving requests.

Worth knowing This checks the API process only. Use it for uptime monitoring, not to tell whether your signals are being processed — a queued backlog still answers 200.

GET /healthz/db

Database health

Whether the API can reach its database. Needs no API key.

Request

curl -X GET https://api.gethumetric.com/healthz/db

Response

{
  "status": "ok",
  "database": "connected"
}

A status object. Anything other than "ok" means reads and writes are currently failing.

GET /healthz/worker

Worker health

How the background pipeline is doing: how many workers are alive, how deep the queue is, and how many signals failed in the last hour. Needs no API key.

Request

curl -X GET https://api.gethumetric.com/healthz/worker

Response

{
  "workers": 1,
  "queue_depth": 0,
  "oldest_pending_seconds": 0,
  "failed_last_hour": 0
}

workers, queue_depth, oldest_pending_seconds, and failed_last_hour.

Worth knowing This is the endpoint to alert on, not /healthz. The API answers 200 happily while a stalled worker leaves every signal unprocessed — a rising oldest_pending_seconds is what tells you that is happening.

Deliberately not listed here The API also serves the endpoints behind registration, login, tenant settings and billing (/v1/register, /v1/login, /v1/tenant/*, /v1/billing/*). Those exist for the dashboard, are not part of the integration surface, and may change without notice — build against what is on this page.

Errors

When something goes wrong

Most failures share the envelope below: the code is stable and safe to branch on, the message is for humans and may change, and doc_url points back at the row for that code on this page. Two kinds of response do NOT use it, and both are easy to miss — read the next two blocks before you write your error handling.

{
  "error": {
    "code": "entity_not_found",
    "message": "Entity not found: agent-42",
    "doc_url": "https://gethumetric.com/docs/errors/entity_not_found"
  }
}

Two shapes that are not that envelope

Request validation — 422

When the body or a query parameter fails schema validation, the framework answers before the envelope is ever built. You get a detail array instead, with one entry per offending field. A client that reads error.code will find nothing here, so check for detail as well. (The validation_error code in the table below is a different thing: it comes from checks the API runs itself, such as pack validation, and it does use the envelope.)

{
  "detail": [
    {
      "type": "missing",
      "loc": ["body", "entity_id"],
      "msg": "Field required",
      "input": { "entityId": "agent-42" }
    }
  ]
}

Tier limit — 402

The billing guard answers before the request reaches a handler, and its error field is a flat string rather than an object. Branching on error.code crashes here; branch on the HTTP status instead.

{
  "error": "tier_limit_exceeded",
  "message": "Free tier limit exceeded (signals: 1000/1000). Upgrade at /v1/billing/checkout.",
  "upgrade_url": "/v1/billing/checkout?tier=pro",
  "current_usage": { "signals": 1000 }
}

Every code

Code	HTTP	Meaning
`validation_error`	400 / 422	A check the API runs itself rejected the request — pack validation, or an unsupported billing tier. Schema-level failures return the detail shape above instead.
`invalid_yaml`	422	The pack YAML could not be parsed, or parsed to something that is not a mapping.
`too_many_metrics`	422	The pack declares more than 7 metrics, which is the ceiling for a single pack.
`unknown_entity_type`	422	No pack has ever been published for that entity_type, so there is nothing to extract against.
`no_active_pack_for_type`	422	A pack exists for that entity type but none is currently active.
`missing_required_fields`	422	The entity is missing a field the pack declares under required_fields.
`invalid_api_key`	401	The key is missing, malformed, revoked, or expired. Also returned when the Authorization header is absent.
`insufficient_scopes`	403	The key is valid but lacks the scope this endpoint requires. Also returned when creating a key that asks for scopes the creating key does not itself hold.
`entity_archived`	403	The entity is archived and no longer accepts signals.
`entity_type_locked`	403	The entity already exists with a different entity_type. An entity’s type cannot be changed after creation.
`cannot_delete_self`	403	A key cannot revoke itself. Create a replacement, then revoke with the new key.
`tier_limit_exceeded`	402	The free-tier ceiling for signals, entities, or packs is full. Upgrade to continue. Uses the flat shape shown above, not the envelope.
`entity_not_found`	404	No entity with that ID in your tenant. Create it before sending signals.
`signal_not_found`	404	No signal with that ID.
`pack_not_found`	404	No pack with that key.
`metric_not_found`	404	The entity has no value recorded for that metric key — or has one you are not allowed to read. See the note below the table.
`api_key_not_found`	404	No key with that id on your account.
`pack_already_exists`	409	A pack with that key already exists. Use PUT to update it.
`entity_type_already_active`	409	Another pack is already active for that entity type. Update it instead of creating a second.
`rate_limit_exceeded`	429	Too many requests this minute. Retry-After tells you how long to wait.
`internal_error`	500	Something failed on our side. Safe to retry.
`byo_key_unavailable`	501	This deployment has bring-your-own-key storage disabled, so tenant provider keys cannot be read or written.
`llm_auth_failed`	502	The configured model provider rejected our credentials. Check the provider key on your account.
`llm_quota_exhausted`	502	The configured model provider reports the account is out of credit or quota.
`llm_unavailable`	502	The configured model provider returned an error we cannot classify. Safe to retry.
`llm_rate_limited`	503	The configured model provider is rate limiting us. Retry with backoff.
`ai_service_unavailable`	503	The pack wizard could not reach a model provider. Retry shortly.
`service_unavailable`	503	The API could not reach its own database while authenticating the request. Retry shortly.

There is no consent_required error. A sensitive metric the caller may not read answers 404 metric_not_found, exactly as a metric that was never written would — deliberately, so that the response does not reveal that the value exists. Grant the consent scope and the same request starts returning the value.

Limits

Rate and volume limits

Limits apply per tenant, not per key, so adding keys does not buy more throughput.

Requests

100 requests per minute per tenant, as a token bucket. Exceeding it returns 429 with a Retry-After header. /healthz is exempt.

Free tier

1,000 signals per month, 10 entities, and 1 pack. Hitting a ceiling returns 402 tier_limit_exceeded on writes; reads keep working.

Payload sizes

Signal text is capped at 300,000 characters — enough for a full multi-hour transcript. Entity free_text is capped at 50,000, pack YAML at 102,400, and the pack wizard prompt at 100,000.

Metrics per pack

A pack may declare at most 7 metrics; an eighth is rejected with 422 too_many_metrics. This is a quality ceiling rather than a billing one — every metric in the pack is scored on every signal, so a wide pack makes each extraction slower, costlier, and less careful about each individual metric. Split a domain across several entity types instead of widening one pack.

Every response carries your budget

X-RateLimit-Limit: 100
X-RateLimit-Remaining: 87
X-RateLimit-Reset: 41

For LLMs

Feeding this to a model

This page is server-rendered, so a crawler or an agent that fetches the URL gets the full reference rather than an empty page. If you would rather hand a model one file, these are generated from the same source as this page and are always in step with it.

/en/llms.txt — Short index — what HuMetric is, and where everything lives.
/en/llms-full.txt — The whole reference as plain text: concepts, conventions, every endpoint with its response, errors, limits.
openapi.json — The machine-readable spec, served by the API itself. Note that most routes do not declare a response schema there, so response bodies are only complete on this page.

Copy for LLM copies exactly the contents of llms-full.txt.

These walk through it end to end
